At present, the integration of public transport has become an important measure of the development of urban public transport system. To achieve this goal, we must have a systematic, holistic, comprehensive understanding and evaluation of public transport situation. From planning and construction coordination, operational coordination and institutional coordination, a preliminary evaluation index system is established with APH. Then the final evaluation index is determined by the use of Delphi method. With the comparison of the evaluation index value and the evaluation standards, the degree of the coordination of urban rail transit and bus network is evaluated.

In reviewing the evacuation problem of mass passenger flow in urban rail transit transfer stations, the cooperative evacuation strategy considering urban rail transit and emergency bus simultaneously is found to be an efficient way. In this work, firstly, the dynamic characteristics of mass passenger flow are analyzed based on the abstraction and simplification of major entities of urban rail transit, including passengers, stations and trains. Then, the operations of the urban rail transit system are modeled, including the boarding, landing and transferring processes of the passengers and the status updating flows of the trains and stations. To realize the cooperative evacuation, a multi-objective optimization model considering the evacuation speed, the number of passengers transferred, and the amount of emergency buses is proposed. The NSGA-II algorithm is adopted to solve the proposed model, which can balance the theoretical validity and computational convenience. Last, the proposed strategy is applied in a real-life case based on the Shanghai Metro line, and the results verify its effectiveness and efficiency.

Integration is not only the main content of development of urban passenger transport system, but also the urgent need to raise the level of public transport services and enhance the attractiveness of public transport. Thus coordination of urban rail transit and conventional bus transit systems is an inherent requirement of implementation of public transport priority development strategy. In the context of rapid development of rail transit in domestic cities, after summarizing the theory and practice of integration of urban rail and conventional bus transit, this paper analyzed the meanings and levels as well as the evaluation method of coordination between urban rail system and conventional bus system. On the basis of analysis, the evaluation indexes of coordination between urban rail system and bus system from institutional, technological and economic views are defined. After that, an evaluation index system of integration level of urban rail network and conventional bus network was set up.

The stability of the last train connection under delays directly reflects the coordination of urban rail network. Based on the connection of scheme of last trains, this paper analyzed of the impact of the delay on the transfers and established a static evaluation index system of the impact on transit network. Furthermore, the paper evaluated a rail transit network under different last train delays. Ultimately, the evaluation results could be got by this method, which could be used to analyze the trend of the evaluation results over delay time.

With the continuous improvement of the operation line network of urban rail transit, analyzing influencing factors of transfer passenger flow of urban rail transit is critical to improve the transfer demand analysis of urban rail transit. Using data collected from questionnaires, transfer passenger flow surveys and smart cards, this study proposes an approach base on nested logit passenger flow assignment model considering transfer choice behaviours of passengers. The transfer passenger flow at seven transfer stations in Nanjing is obtained. Subsequently, this study investigates the potential influencing factors of transfer passenger flow, including the node degree, geographic location (located in the city center, urban fringe, suburbs or suburban fringe), economic location (distance from the city center) and transportation locations (if it is close to a transportation hub or in combination with the hub) of rail transit transfer stations. The results indicate that a positive correlation between the transfer passenger flow and the node degrees of transfer stations. However, the relationship between transfer passenger flow and the economic, geographic, and transportation locations of transfer stations is not clear. The finding have reference value for the network design of rail transit transfer stations and transfer facilities, and provide reference for the analysis of passenger flow under network operation.

This study analyses and compares several forecast methods of urban rail transit passenger flow, and indicates the necessity of forecasting short-term passenger flow. Support vector regression is a promising method for the forecast of passenger flow because it uses a risk function consisting of the empirical error and a regularized term which is based on the structural risk minimization principle. In this paper, the prediction model of urban rail transit passenger flow is constructed. Through the comparison with BP neural networks forecast methods, the experimental results show that applying this method in URT passenger flow forecasting is feasible and it provides a promising alternative to passenger flow prediction.

large passenger flow is a common condition of urban transit operation, and the station bears the pressure of large passenger flow directly. This paper analyzes the reason for the appearance of large passenger flow and the characteristics of it, discusses the principles and methods that the station can apply under large passenger flow combined with the passenger’s transport process and the operation process.
